Get ready to discover EVERYTHING about Rio Carnival! We will pick you up at your hotel and then take you to the city of samba where we will enter the barracão (the place where the preparations for the carnival take place).

With easy steps you will leave there ready to dance a lot during the Rio carnival! After this epic moment, it's time to cool off by trying one of the most famous drinks in Brazil: the caipirinha! It's a very refreshing mix of cachaça and lemon and common at Carnival! This is a complete experience to immerse yourself in the culture of Rio de Janeiro's carnival.
